President Barack Obama signed a Presidential Memorandum on May 21, directing the Environmental Protection Agency and the Department of Transportation to create the first national policy to increase the fuel efficiency of medium- and heavy-duty trucks while decreasing their greenhouse gas emissions. The directive will target new trucks from the 2014-2018 model years. U.S. trucks emit 20 per cent of the greenhouse gas pollution related to U.S. transportation. The president also called for an extension of the fuel efficiency and GHG emissions policy he announced on May 19, 2009, which covers cars and light-duty trucks in the model years 2012 to 2016.
